Components For Textile Industry

Our program has products made of both unhardened and hardened strip steel. unhardened - latch needle steel latch needles are manufactured from cold-rolled precision strip steel and then hardened. To ensure that the needles will run smoothly and accurately in the knitting machine, their thickness has to meet very close tolerances. Our latch needle steel meets all of the high demands for latch needle production. uddeholm's latch needle steels have: * good wear resistance * high steel cleanliness (very good fatigue resistance) * uniform fine grained structure * no decarburization * smooth surface and close thickness tolerances hardened - reed steel our reed steel is used in weaving reeds in machines for weaving high-quality screen fabrics used in many kinds of industrial filters and screens for printing. The weaving of fine-mesh metal and synthetic fabrics demands reeds of extremely high quality with precise edge treatment. uddeholm's reed steels have: * very precise thickness- and width tolerances * machined smooth edges * high and uniform hardness * excellent wear resistance * good straightness
